Gibson, Ga., March 29, 1933 HOW LONDON DliBTOf’S* I’ll ISONS f OliTJONKD OUT BOOMS.— There were live debtors’ prisons in old London—the King’s Bench, the Murshiilwett, White Cross Street, Uorseuionger Lane and the Fleet. The lust named Is remembered as the place la which Mr. l’ickwlck was confined utid to which Sum Weller went when he visited Ins master. It was un unusual prison, even ns debtors’ prisons went, for it allowed a certain space without the prison within which prisoners were permitted to reside at large, provided they “furnished “ball"—against nntlsfuc tor.v security"—1. e., their escape. This space, known ns “The Rules,” embraced a circuin ferenee of three tulles and Includ ed the London Coffee house with in Its area. Another system peculiar to debt ors’ prisons at that time was known ns “chumming.” This meant that every new pris oner was given a "churn ticket," which Imltcuted the particular room In which he was to lodge. He showed Ills ticket to the inmate ot the room, who had el (tier to Share the apartment with the newcomer or else pay him 5 shillings to "pur chase him out.” If the newcomer was offered the fee, he was com pelled to take It, nnd then went and provided himself with the share of some other room, us best he could. Plenty of poor prison ers were only too glad to let off part of their rooms for a shilling or 18 pence. Some of the prison ers, who had the means of furnish ing their rooms In u lavish man ner, would let them off to newcom ers, who could afford to pay, for as much as a guinea a week.—London Saturday Review. “ I How Rcdio Wave* Travel At ordinary temperatures, the speed of sound through tha air Is about 1,100 feet per second.

In Asia Minor there was a small but wealthy country known as Carla, one of the Greek states which were numerous on the Asiatic mainland and the outlying Islands. The capital was Halicarnassus and a Persian satrap named Mausolus seized authority there In the Fourth ceutury, B. C.

There was less penetration of solar heat through light-colored pulrps than through oth ers. Under like conditions or radia tion and exposure to sunshine, car stir faces painted red were hotter than those painted yellow, but were cooler than those painted black. It was found also that the difference between air and surface temperatures for sta tlonnry cars was about twice ns great as for moving cars.

The Federal gas tax will undoubtedly he with us another twelve mon-lhs. Is anyone optimistic enough to think that such a remunerative tax will ever be repealed? The marvel is that it has not been increased. How many taxes can you think of tltot were established as emergency measures, that have ever been dropped? Or, if they were dropped, have not been disguised and collected just the the same under a new name? And now there is a pressure to make state gas taxes still higher and make automobile owners furnish additional taxes to the general fund. PEACE AND TAXES The friends of world peace are the best friends of tax reduc tion as well. The cost of war—past, present and future—is the major item in the operating cost of every great power. In this country, 72 per cent of all federal funds, go for war debts, war veterans and the army and navy. Organized destruction hits every pocketbook.
